Main Ingredients
  • 1 large burrito tortilla
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup lettuce, chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • 1/2 cup pickles
  • 1/4 cup onions, diced (optional)
  • 1/4 cup your choice of sauce (ranch, BBQ, or sriracha)
  • to taste salt and pepper

Method
 

Cooking Ground Beef
  1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Assembling the Burrito
  1. On a flat surface, lay out the large burrito tortilla.
  2. Spread the cooked ground beef across the center of the tortilla.
  3. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, then add your chopped lettuce, diced tomato, pickles, and onions if you're using them.
  4. Drizzle your chosen sauce over the toppings for an extra burst of flavor.
  5. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll tightly from the bottom up to encase all the delicious fillings.
Serving the Burrito
  1. Optionally, you can toast the burrito in a skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  2. Cut in half and serve warm with a side of crispy tortilla chips or a refreshing salad.

Notes

Feel free to swap ground beef for ground turkey or a plant-based option. Incorporate crushed tortilla chips inside the burrito for added crunch. Ensure you don't overstuff the burrito to make rolling easier. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
